    Tips

    September 19, 2025

    Ghana has a fascinating history of presidential vehicles, which speak not only to the country's political status but also to its technological advancement. Led by a stunning 1961 Cadillac, once owned by Kwame Nkrumah and gifted to him by John F. Kennedy, the splendor of the American automobile becomes a symbol of a new era.

    Another notable car is the 1902 Gardner-Serpollet steam car, originally intended for the colonial governor. This early steam car marks the beginning of automotive history in Ghana, combining tradition with innovation.

    While many of the vehicles that came after Nkrumah are not immediately known, the grounds are home to several Mercedes sedans, a Nissan, and a Toyota. These cars tell stories of power, change, and the never-ending drive for mobility—a true car enthusiast's tribute!
